Recenzii
There are not enough superlatives to describe this anthology of diary entries, letters, prayers, poetry, sermons, speeches, rituals, and even minutes of meetings which together reconstruct the world of Jewish women and their concerns as spiritual human beings from the year 1560 until just yesterday. It is a feast for the hungry, a cornucopia of useable ceremonies, a glorious, full-throated chorus of women's voices where before there was silence or whispers or, worst of all, men telling us what women want, need, and care about. To Ellen Umansky and Dianne Ashton, brava and thank you! —Letty Cottin Pogrebin, author of Deborah, Golda, and Me: Being Female and Jewish in America
"This is a wonderful collection that recovers the voices of Jewish women. It is essential reading, and a valuable resource, for all who are interested in Jewish history and culture." —Paula Hyman, Yale University
"The most deeply spiritual moments are those of connecting and healing. Not only are there many such moments in the specific tellings of this book, but the book as a whole makes a connection across the oldest, deepest split in Jewish life—the split between the well-told stories of men and the little-told stories of women." —Arthur Waskow, author of Seasons of Our Joy: A Modern Guide to the Jewish Holidays
